Lyrics
Call on Dolly
She's the one the spinsters recommend
Just name the kind of man your sister
Wants and she'll snatch him up
Don't forget to bring your maiden aunts
And she'll match him up
Call on Dolly
If your eldest daughter needs a friend
Tell me, Mrs. Levi
What's in all this for you?
A living, Mr. Kemper
Some people paint
Some sew
I meddle
I've always been a woman who arranges things
For the pleasure and the profit it derives
I've always been a woman who arranges things
Like furniture and daffodils
And lives
When a man with a timid tongue
Meets a girl with a diffident air
Why should the tortured creatures
Beat around the bush?
When heaven knows
Mother Nature always needs a little push
So I put my hand in here
I put my hand in there
And a girl over six foot three
Loves a man who comes up to her ear
Surely it's obvious she'll never be seduced
Till some kind soul condescends
To give her beau a little boost
So I put my hand in there
I put my hand in here
I have always been a woman who arranges things
It's my duty to assist the Lord above
I have always been a woman who arranges things
Like luncheon parties, poker games, and love
My aplomb in cosmetic art
Turned a frump to a trump lady fair
She had a countenance a little bit like Scrooge
But oh, today you would swear
The Lord Himself applied the rouge
I put my hand in here
And twist a little
Stir a little
Him a little, her a little
Shape a little, mold a little
Some poor chap gets sold a little
When I use my fist a little
Some young bride gets kissed a little
Pressure with the thumbs
Matrimony comes
When I put my hand in there
